Butanol production from sweet sorghum bagasse with high solids content: Part I—comparison of liquid hot water pretreatment with dilute sulfuric acid

In these studies, we pretreated sweet sorghum bagasse (SSB) using liquid hot water (LHW) or dilute H₂SO₄ (2 g L^?1) at 190°C for zero min (as soon as temperature reached 190°C, cooling was started) to reduce generation of sugar degradation fermentation inhibiting products such as furfural and hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF). The solids loading were 250–300 g L^?1. This was followed by enzymatic hydrolysis. After hydrolysis, 89.0 g L^?1 sugars, 7.60 g L^?1 acetic acid, 0.33 g L^?1 furfural, and 0.07 g L^?1 HMF were released. This pretreatment and hydrolysis resulted in the release of 57.9% sugars. This was followed by second hydrolysis of the fibrous biomass which resulted in the release of 43.64 g L^?1 additional sugars, 2.40 g L^?1 acetic acid, zero g L^?1 furfural, and zero g L^?1 HMF. In both the hydrolyzates, 86.3% sugars present in SSB were released. Fermentation of the hydrolyzate I resulted in poor acetone‐butanol‐ethanol (ABE) fermentation. However, fermentation of the hydrolyzate II was successful and produced 13.43 g L^?1 ABE of which butanol was the main product. Use of 2 g L^?1 H₂SO₄ as a pretreatment medium followed by enzymatic hydrolysis resulted in the release of 100.6–93.8% (w/w) sugars from 250 to 300 g L^?1 SSB, respectively. LHW or dilute H₂SO₄ were used to economize production of cellulosic sugars from SSB. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 34:960–966, 2018     

玉米秸秆分批补料获得高还原糖浓度酶解液的条件优化

木质纤维素高浓度还原糖水解液的获得是纤维乙醇产业化发展的方向。在发酵工业领域,分批补料法是实现这一目标的重要研究途径。本研究采用分批补料法对获得高浓度玉米秸秆酶解还原糖的条件进行了优化。以稀硫酸预处理的玉米秸秆为原料,考察了液固比、补加量与补加时间对分批补料糖化的影响。结果表明,秸秆高浓度酶解液条件的初始物料为20％ (重量/体积),木聚糖酶220 U/g (底物),纤维素酶6 FPU/g (底物),果胶酶50 U/g (底物),在24 h、48 h后分批补加8％预处理后的物料,同时添加与补料量相应的木聚糖酶20 U/g (底物),纤维素酶2 FPU/g (底物),72 h后,最终糖化结果与非补料法相比,还原糖浓度从48.5 g/L提高到138.5 g/L,原料的酶解率最终达到理论值的62.5％。试验结果表明补料法可以显著提高秸秆水解液还原糖浓度。     

Co‐hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass for microbial lipid accumulation

The herbaceous perennial energy crops miscanthus, giant reed, and switchgrass, along with the annual crop residue corn stover, were evaluated for their bioconversion potential. A co‐hydrolysis process, which applied dilute acid pretreatment, directly followed by enzymatic saccharification without detoxification and liquid–solid separation between these two steps was implemented to convert lignocellulose into monomeric sugars (glucose and xylose). A factorial experiment in a randomized block design was employed to optimize the co‐hydrolysis process. Under the optimal reaction conditions, corn stover exhibited the greatest total sugar yield (glucose + xylose) at 0.545 g g^?1 dry biomass at 83.3% of the theoretical yield, followed by switch grass (0.44 g g^?1 dry biomass, 65.8% of theoretical yield), giant reed (0.355 g g^?1 dry biomass, 64.7% of theoretical yield), and miscanthus (0.349 g g^?1 dry biomass, 58.1% of theoretical yield). The influence of combined severity factor on the susceptibility of pretreated substrates to enzymatic hydrolysis was clearly discernible, showing that co‐hydrolysis is a technically feasible approach to release sugars from lignocellulosic biomass. The oleaginous fungus Mortierella isabellina was selected and applied to the co‐hydrolysate mediums to accumulate fungal lipids due to its capability of utilizing both C5 and C6 sugars. Fungal cultivations grown on the co‐hydrolysates exhibited comparable cell mass and lipid production to the synthetic medium with pure glucose and xylose. These results elucidated that combining fungal fermentation and co‐hydrolysis to accumulate lipids could have the potential to enhance the utilization efficiency of lignocellulosic biomass for advanced biofuels production.

Comparisons of SPORL and dilute acid pretreatments for sugar and ethanol productions from aspen

This study reports comparative evaluations of sugar and ethanol production from a native aspen (Populus tremuloides) between sulfite pretreatment to overcome recalcitrance of lignocellulose (SPORL) and dilute acid (DA) pretreatments. All aqueous pretreatments were carried out in a laboratory wood pulping digester using wood chips at 170°C with a liquid to oven dry (od) wood ratio (L/W) of 3:1 at two levels of acid charge on wood of 0.56 and 1.11%. Sodium bisulfite charge on od wood was 0 for DA and 1.5 or 3.0% for SPORL. All substrates produced by both pretreatments (except DA with pretreatment duration of 0) had good enzymatic digestibility of over 80%. However, SPORL produced higher enzymatic digestibility than its corresponding DA pretreatment for all the experiments conducted. As a result, SPORL produced higher ethanol yield from simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of cellulosic substrate than its corresponding DA pretreatment. SPORL was more effective than its corresponding DA pretreatment in reducing energy consumption for postpretreatment wood chip size-reduction. SPORL, with lower energy input and higher sugar and ethanol yield, produced higher sugar and ethanol production energy efficiencies than the corresponding DA pretreatment.     

Design of an enzyme cocktail consisting of different fungal platforms for efficient hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse: Optimization and synergism studies

Lignocellulosic materials represent a very important and promising source of renewable biomass. In order to turn them into fermentable sugars, synergism among the different enzymes that carry out bioconversion of these materials is one of the main factors that should be considered. Experimental mixture design was performed to optimize the proportion of enzymes produced by native strains of Trichoderma harzianum IOC 3844, Penicillium funiculosum ATCC 11797, and Aspergillus niger ATCC 1004, resulting in a proportion of 15, 50, and 35%, respectively. This mixture was able to hydrolyze 25 g/L of pretreated sugarcane bagasse with 91% of yield after 48 h of enzymatic reaction. Synergism along the hydrolysis process, besides the influence of lignin, hemicellulose, and solids loading, were also studied. Response surface methodology (RSM) based on Central Composite Rotatable Design was used to optimize solids and protein loadings to increase glucose release and enzymatic hydrolysis yield. The optimum solid and protein loadings established with RSM were 196 g/L and 24 mg/g cellulose, respectively, and under these conditions (94.1 ± 8) g/L of glucose were obtained, corresponding to a hydrolysis yield of 64%. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Application of high throughput pretreatment and co‐hydrolysis system to thermochemical pretreatment. Part 1: Dilute acid

Because conventional approaches for evaluating sugar release from the coupled operations of pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis are extremely time and material intensive, high throughput (HT) pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis systems have become vital for screening large numbers of lignocellulosic biomass samples to identify feedstocks and/or processing conditions that significantly improve performance and lower costs. Because dilute acid pretreatment offers many important advantages in rendering biomass highly susceptible to subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis, a high throughput pretreatment and co‐hydrolysis (HTPH) approach was extended to employ dilute acid as a tool to screen for enhanced performance. First, a single‐step neutralization and buffering method was developed to allow effective enzymatic hydrolysis of the whole pretreated slurry. Switchgrass and poplar were then pretreated with 0.5% and 1% acid loadings at a 5% solids concentration, the resulting slurry conditioned with the buffering approach, and the entire mixture enzymatically hydrolyzed. The resulting sugar yields demonstrated that single‐step neutralizing and buffering was capable of adjusting the pH as needed for enzymatic saccharification, as well as overcoming enzyme inhibition by compounds released in pretreatment. In addition, the effects of pretreatment conditions and biomass types on susceptibility of pretreated substrates to enzymatic conversion were clearly discernible, demonstrating the method to be a useful extension of HTPH systems.

Xylose production from giant reed (Arundo donax L.): Modeling and optimization of dilute acid hydrolysis

Statistical modeling and optimization of dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis of potential energy crop giant reed (Arundo donax L.) has been performed using response surface methodology. Central composite rotatable design was applied to assess the effect of acid concentration, reaction time and temperature on efficiency and selectivity of xylan polysaccharide conversion to xylose. Second-order polynomial model was fitted to experimental data to find the optimum reaction conditions by multiple regression analysis. The monomeric xylose recovery ca. 94% (vs. 93% predicted) was achieved under optimized hydrolysis conditions (1.27% acid concentration, 141.6 °C and 36.4 min), confirming the high validity of the developed model. The low content of glucose (2.7%) and monosaccharide degradation products (0.9% furfural and 0.7% 5-hydroxymethylfurfural) provided a high quality xylose-rich subtract, ready for subsequent biochemical conversion to value-added products. The solid xylan-free residue was easily converted to fermentable sugars resulting in cellulose digestibility of 70% vs. 9% for untreated biomass.     

Soluble and insoluble solids contributions to high-solids enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose

The rates and extents of enzymatic cellulose hydrolysis of dilute acid pretreated corn stover (PCS) decline with increasing slurry concentration. However, mass transfer limitations are not apparent until insoluble solids concentrations approach 20% w/w, indicating that inhibition of enzyme hydrolysis at lower solids concentrations is primarily due to soluble components. Consequently, the inhibitory effects of pH-adjusted pretreatment liquor on the enzymatic hydrolysis of PCS were investigated. A response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to empirically model how hydrolysis performance varied as a function of enzyme loading (12-40mg protein/g cellulose) and insoluble solids concentration (5-13%) in full-slurry hydrolyzates. Factorial design and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were also used to assess the contribution of the major classes of soluble components (acetic acid, phenolics, furans, sugars) to total inhibition. High sugar concentrations (130g/L total initial background sugars) were shown to be the primary cause of performance inhibition, with acetic acid (15g/L) only slightly inhibiting enzymatic hydrolysis and phenolic compounds (9g/L total including vanillin, syringaldehyde, and 4-hydroxycinnamic acid) and furans (8g/L total of furfural and hydroxymethylfurfural, HMF) with only a minor effect on reaction kinetics. It was also demonstrated that this enzyme inhibition in high-solids PCS slurries can be approximated using a synthetic hydrolyzate composed of pure sugars supplemented with a mixture of acetic acid, furans, and phenolic compounds, which indicates that generally all of the reaction rate-determining soluble compounds for this system can be approximated synthetically.     

Comparison of Dilute Acid and Sulfite Pretreatment for Enzymatic Saccharification of Earlywood and Latewood of Douglas fir

This study applied dilute acid (DA) and sulfite pretreatment to overcome the recalcitrance of lignocelluloses (SPORL) to deconstruct earlywood and latewood cell walls of Douglas fir for fermentable sugars production through subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. DA pretreatment removed almost all the hemicelluloses, while SPORL at initial pH?=?4.5 (SP-B) removed significant amount of lignin between 20 and 25 %. But both are not sufficient for effective enzymatic saccharification. SPORL at low initial pH?=?2 (SP-AB) combines the advantage of both DA and SPORL-B to achieve approximately 90 % hemicellulose removal and delignification of 10–20 %. As a result, SP-AB effectively removed recalcitrance and thereby significantly improved enzymatic saccharification compared with DA and SP-B. Results also showed that earlywood with significantly lower density produced less saccharification after DA pretreatment, suggesting that wood density does not contribute to recalcitrance. The thick cell wall of latewood did not limit chemical penetration in pretreatments. The high lignin content of earlywood limited the effectiveness of DA pretreatment for enzymatic saccharification, while hemicellulose limits the effectiveness of high pH pretreatment of SP-B. The higher hemicellulose content in the earlywood and latewood of heartwood reduced saccharification relative to the corresponding earlywood and latewood in the sapwood using DA and SP-AB.     

Ethanol production from wheat straw by recombinant Escherichia coli strain FBR5 at high solid loading

Ethanol production by a recombinant bacterium from wheat straw (WS) at high solid loading by separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) was studied. The yield of total sugars from dilute acid pretreated WS (150 g/L) after enzymatic saccharification was 86.3 ± 1.5 g/L. The pretreated WS was bio-abated by growing a fungal strain aerobically in the liquid portion for 16 h. The recombinant Escherichia coli strain FBR5 produced 41.1 ± 1.1 g ethanol/L from non-abated WS hydrolyzate (total sugars, 86.6 ± 0.3 g/L) in 168 h at pH 7.0 and 35 °C. The bacterium produced 41.8 ± 0.0 g ethanol/L in 120 h from the bioabated WS by SHF. It produced 41.6 ± 0.7 g ethanol/L in 120 h from bioabated WS by fed-batch SSF. This is the first report of the production of above 4% ethanol from a lignocellulosic hydrolyzate by the recombinant bacterium.     

Optimization of CO2 laser-based pretreatment of corn stover using response surface methodology

CO2 laser pretreatment to improve the enzymatic hydrolysis of corn stover for production of monosaccharide, was investigated. Response surface methodology (RSM), at a three-variable, three-level experiment Box-Behnken design (BBD) established the following optimum pretreatment parameters: time, 67.53 min; power, 264.33 W; and liquid-to-solid ratio, 21.29:1 (mL/g). Under these conditions, the reducing sugars produced was 4.941 mg/mL for cellulase hydrolysis. This amount matched the predicted value and increased cellulase hydrolysis from 14.47% to 30.84%. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that CO2 laser pretreatment converted the smooth into a rough and porous surface, which promoted the enzyme access and resulted in a high specific reducing sugars production rate.     

Thermo-mechanical extrusion pretreatment for conversion of soybean hulls to fermentable sugars

Thermo-mechanical extrusion pretreatment for lignocellulosic biomass was investigated using soybean hulls as the substrate. The enzyme cocktail used to hydrolyze pretreated soybean hulls to fermentable sugars was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Structural changes in substrate and sugar yields from thermo-mechanical processing were compared with two traditional pretreatment methods that utilized dilute acid (1% sulfuric acid) and alkali (1% sodium hydroxide). Extrusion processing parameters (barrel temperature, in-barrel moisture, screw speed) and processing aids (starch, ethylene glycol) were studied with respect to reducing sugar and glucose yields. The conditions resulting in the highest cellulose to glucose conversion (95%) were screw speed 350 rpm, maximum barrel temperature 80 °C and in-barrel moisture content 40% wb. Compared with untreated soybean hulls, glucose yield from enzymatic hydrolysis of soybean hulls increased by 69.6%, 128.7% and 132.2%, respectively, when pretreated with dilute acid, alkali and extrusion.     

Carbohydrate derived‐pseudo‐lignin can retard cellulose biological conversion

Dilute acid as well as water only (hydrothermal) pretreatments often lead to a significant hemicellulose loss to soluble furans and insoluble degradation products, collectively termed as chars and/or pseudo‐lignin. In order to understand the factors contributing to reducing sugar yields from pretreated biomass and the possible influence of hemicellulose derived pseudo‐lignin on cellulose conversion at the moderate to low enzyme loadings necessary for favorable economics, dilute acid pretreatment of Avicel cellulose alone and mixed with beechwood xylan or xylose was performed at various severities. Following pretreatment, the solids were enzymatically hydrolyzed and characterized for chemical composition and physical properties by NMR, FT‐IR, and SEM imaging. It was found that hemicelluloses (xylan) derived‐pseudo‐lignin was formed at even moderate severities and that these insoluble degradation products can significantly retard cellulose hydrolysis. Furthermore, although low severity (CSF ～ 1.94) dilute acid pretreatment of a xylan–Avicel mixture hydrolyzed most of the xylan (98%) and produced negligible amounts of pseudo‐lignin, enzymatic conversion of cellulose dropped significantly (>25%) compared to cellulose pretreated alone at the same conditions. The drop in cellulose conversion was higher than realized for cellulase inhibition by xylooligomers reported previously. Plausible mechanisms are discussed to explain the observed reductions in cellulose conversions. Biotechnol. Bioeng. 2013; 110: 737–753. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Methodological analysis for determination of enzymatic digestibility of cellulosic materials

Accurate measurement of enzymatic cellulose digestibility (X) is important in evaluating the efficiency of lignocellulose pretreatment technologies, assessing the performance of reconstituted cellulase mixtures, and conducting economic analysis for biorefinery processes. We analyzed the effect of sugars contained in enzymes solutions, usually added as a preservative, and random measurement errors on the accuracy of X calculated by various methods. The analysis suggests that exogenous sugars at levels measured in several commercial enzyme preparations significantly bias the results and that this error should be minimized by accounting for these sugars in the calculation of X. Additionally, a method of calculating X equating the ratio of the soluble glucose equivalent in the liquid phase after hydrolysis to the sum of the soluble glucose equivalent in the liquid phase and the insoluble glucose equivalent in the residual solid after hydrolysis was found to be the most accurate, particularly at high conversion levels (>ca. 50%).

Reducing agents improve enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulosic substrates in the presence of pretreatment liquid

Enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated lignocellulosic substrates has emerged as an interesting option to produce sugars that can be converted to liquid biofuels and other commodities using microbial biocatalysts. Lignocellulosic substrates are pretreated to make them more accessible to cellulolytic enzymes, but the pretreatment liquid partially inhibits subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. The presence of pretreatment liquid from Norway spruce resulted in a 63% decrease in the enzymatic saccharification of Avicel compared to when the reaction was performed in a buffered aqueous solution. The addition of 15 mM of a reducing agent (hydrogen sulfite, dithionite, or dithiothreitol) to reaction mixtures with the pretreatment liquid resulted in up to 54% improvement of the saccharification efficiency. When the reducing agents were added to reaction mixtures without pretreatment liquid, there was a 13-39% decrease in saccharification efficiency. In the presence of pretreatment liquid, the addition of 15 mM dithionite to Avicel, α-cellulose or filter cake of pretreated spruce wood resulted in improvements between 25 and 33%. Positive effects (6-17%) of reducing agents were also observed in experiments with carboxymethyl cellulose and 2-hydroxyethyl cellulose. The approach to add reducing agents appears useful for facilitating the utilization of enzymes to convert cellulosic substrates in industrial processes.     

Production of biobutanol from acid-pretreated corncob using Clostridium beijerinckii TISTR 1461: Process optimization studies

Corncob is a potential feedstock in Thailand that can be used for fermentable sugar production through dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. To recover high amounts of monomeric sugars from corncob, the sulfuric pretreatment conditions were optimized by using response surface methodology with three independent variables: sulfuric acid concentration, temperature, and time. The highest response of total sugars, 48.84 g/L, was found at 122.78°C, 4.65 min, and 2.82% (v/v) H₂SO₄. With these conditions, total sugars from the confirmation experiment were 46.29 g/L, with 5.51% error from the predicted value. The hydrolysate was used as a substrate for acetone–butanol–ethanol fermentation to evaluate its potential for microbial growth. The simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) showed that C. beijerinckii TISTR 1461 can generate acetone–butanol–ethanol products at 11.64 g/L (5.29 g/L acetone, 6.26 g/L butanol, and 0.09 g/L ethanol) instantly using sugars from the hydrolysed corncob with Novozymes 50013 cellulase enzyme without an overliming process.     

Effect of additives on the digestibility of corn stover solids following pretreatment by leading technologies

Bovine serum albumin (BSA), Tween‐20, and polyethylene glycol (PEG6000) were added to washed corn stover solids produced by ammonia fiber expansion (AFEX), ammonia recycled percolation (ARP), dilute sulfuric acid (DA), lime, controlled pH, and sulfur dioxide (SO₂) pretreatments and to untreated corn stover (UT) and pure Avicel glucan prior to adding cellulase supplemented with β‐glucosidase at an activity ratio of 1:2/g and a moderate enzyme loading of 16.1 mg/g glucan in the raw corn stover. The additives were applied individually at 150, 300, and 600 mg/g glucan in the pretreated solids and in combinations of equal amounts of each that totaled 600 mg/g. The greatest increase in total sugar release was by Tween‐20 with SO₂ pretreated solids followed by PEG6000 with ARP solids and Tween‐20 with lime solids. The effectiveness of the additives was observed to depend on the type of sugars left in the solids, suggesting that it may be more beneficial to use the mixture of these additives to realize a high total sugar yield. In addition, little enhancement in sugar release was possible beyond a loading of 150 mg additives/g glucan for most pretreatments, and combinations did not improve sugar release much over use of additives alone for all except SO₂. Additives were also found to significantly increase concentrations of cellobiose and cellooligomers after 72 h of Avicel hydrolysis. Biotechnol.

Comparative study of corn stover pretreated by dilute acid and cellulose solvent‐based lignocellulose fractionation: Enzymatic hydrolysis,supramolecular structure,and substrate accessibility

Liberation of fermentable sugars from recalcitrant biomass is among the most costly steps for emerging cellulosic ethanol production. Here we compared two pretreatment methods (dilute acid, DA, and cellulose solvent and organic solvent lignocellulose fractionation, COSLIF) for corn stover. At a high cellulase loading [15 filter paper units (FPUs) or 12.3 mg cellulase per gram of glucan], glucan digestibilities of the corn stover pretreated by DA and COSLIF were 84% at hour 72 and 97% at hour 24, respectively. At a low cellulase loading (5 FPUs per gram of glucan), digestibility remained as high as 93% at hour 24 for the COSLIF‐pretreated corn stover but reached only ～60% for the DA‐pretreated biomass. Quantitative determinations of total substrate accessibility to cellulase (TSAC), cellulose accessibility to cellulase (CAC), and non‐cellulose accessibility to cellulase (NCAC) based on adsorption of a non‐hydrolytic recombinant protein TGC were measured for the first time. The COSLIF‐pretreated corn stover had a CAC of 11.57 m²/g, nearly twice that of the DA‐pretreated biomass (5.89 m²/g). These results, along with scanning electron microscopy images showing dramatic structural differences between the DA‐ and COSLIF‐pretreated samples, suggest that COSLIF treatment disrupts microfibrillar structures within biomass while DA treatment mainly removes hemicellulose. Under the tested conditions COSLIF treatment breaks down lignocellulose structure more extensively than DA treatment, producing a more enzymatically reactive material with a higher CAC accompanied by faster hydrolysis rates and higher enzymatic digestibility.
